How Farmers Should Vote.

A farmer waiting to a western paper
truly says:
Our congressman know that the in
dustries of this country are being taxed
to pay from six to ten per cent on about
two billions Of watered railroad bonds
They know too, that the Union Pacific
railroad is owing the government about
fifty millions of dollars; and yet there
is not honesty enough in both houses
OF Congress to oblige them to pay what
the road honestly owes. They know
too that the laboring people are being
taxed out of all proportion on every.
thing they possess and on some things
taxed twice, while the monied men of
the country, in one way and another,
are evading just proportion of their
tax dues. The great mistake we have
made is in electing to Office mere
politicians who are neither thinkers nor
reformers.
We should select men who are thor.
oughly modern; men who are thorough.
ly honest and of large ideas and busi-
ness capacity; men who are not so very
respectable that they think it beneath
them to get down, as it we're, among
the laboring classes to know what laws
are necessary for their protection and
prosperity; in short men who will not
forget that they are sent to Congress in
the interests of all the people, and not
Tor the purpose of making fortunes for
themselves. Brother farmers it is for
this purpose that it is necessary for us
to band ourselves together. We have
1t In our power to bring all this much
needed reform about, if we vote for men
of principle and with definite purpose
in view, instead of blindly following
party lines. While men Of most every
other industry have combined for their
own aggrandizement, the farmer has
been content to ego it alone and in
consequence is euchred.

Keeping Vegetables.

We observe that some writer's on
vegetable gardening speak of the diff.
feulty of Keeping succulent vegetables,
like beets, turnips and parsnips, from
willing when placed in cellars, and
recommend packing them in sand, or
bury'ng them in the earth of the cellar
bottom. This mode is necessarily
cumbersome and inconvenient. An ca.
sier and more perfect way is to pack
them in damp sawdust, placed in bar
rels of moderate size, or in boxes of
not more than two feet in width. Place
layer of sawdust in the bottom, then
layer of the roots, then fill in all the
interstices with another layer, and so
on till the box is full, leaving no crew
ices. We have taken beets out of such
boxes after remaining in them full
year, so fresh in appearance that no
external difference could be seen be.
